    Love the hand cart ! My Grandad had an old wooden cart with wooden wheels to haul his wood, he'd go up the hill and come back with a cartfull of wood, all cut by hand, no power saw. He had one in the end, only because the kids bought it for him. Good memories from New Brunswick !

    No pic today, but I DID split and stack the 3/4 cord of Tamarack I fetched last week Monday .... Should have about 3 cord now. I should really take measurements to figger out what I've really got there, it always seems like there's more when you look at it.

    This one works perfect. The propane pilot system has already been bypassed, so all burners (oven included) have to be lit manually. Zero leaks, wood firebox in perfect condition. Fixed a coupla broken pieces in the chimney outlet adaptor and the front damper control, but otherwise the only...

    Just got us a new use for our firewood at the lake ..... picked up a wood-burning cookstove, with a firebox and 2 "elements" on the left, with a propane oven & 4-burner stove on the right. An antique Belanger model, built in Quebec prolly 60 or more years ago. It's gonna need a bit of...

    Pike, perch, walleye, small mouth bass. Twin-engine'd 'skeeters, ported & muffler modded skeeters. All kinds of 'em. And you can bring your boat, as long as the motor has an orange cover and a Husky sticker on it .... :cool2:

    Our woodpile at the lake ... 3 rows up the side, 2 rows facing the lake. Still not enough for my liking ....

    Didn't take a pic yet (will tonight) but we cut, split and piled about 1 1/2 cords of Tamarack over the weekend, sold 1/3 cord to an older couple at our campground. Also cut & split the 8' cedar logs I was planning to mill, decided I'd rather spend the summer having fun with the kids and...

    Thanks Ron, and yes it is comfy ! 4 pieces of threaded rod thru-and-thru (one in each corner) guarantee it won't get loose anytime soon, so no-one spills their drink when the big guy sits down ! It's just a tad high for the FIL, he's got short stubby little legs .... :msp_tongue:

    Our BRP (Can-Am & Ski-Doo) crates are wood frame, the Honda ones are steel. Mr. bossman is going to check if they're really ours to keep, so I can't have 'em until I knows .....

    No pics handy, could take a couple. Any Honda ATV dealer would have these, but they have to ship them back for recycling. You might be able to convince a dealer to sell you some though. They tell us to keep them, we're way up on the Trans-Canada Highway and shipping & handling costs too...

    Your helper looks pooped !!! Split the 2nd pickupload of wood for a friend at our campground, and fetched us 2 loads for us. Still got a few more loads to get, I want a major surplus of camping firewood this year, and not have to scrounge for wood to finish the season. Ended up doing...

    Alaskan II and Husqvarna 181 went to town ...

    That saw was a borrowed Husqvarna 181 with an 18" bar. Plenty of snot for the softwood Cedar being milled. I'd be happy if I could find a 66 to 81cc saw just to mill with, we don't have any trees bigger than what you see above anyway. People don't believe in long bars up here, no big trees to...

    No PPE req'd, I've got God on speed-dial. Don't know why there aren't any spacers in this pic, I'd been using some all the way thru the process ... the FIL must've had a big dinner and had energy to spare ....:pumpkin2:
